Kraton Kraton with VW Body

Personally, i think this body is way too small. It fits with different body posts etc. but to me it looks weird. When you look at the Tamiya Volkswagen Beetle, that size is better relative to the car. I own a Fireteam 6s and would like a Baja Bug body, but would never consider this (size).
the Proline body is more suitable for 1/10 scale cars i think.

Looks good...like the rack on top. I have one that I need to add roof support, and at some point, test fit to make body holes.... still on the fence with it

I will probably not buy another Proline part. That roof rack was about $45 canadian plus tax and was missing basic hardware to put it together. Also the light bar is another $70. I wanted a roof rack so I can make a battery tray up in the roof so there are no trailing wires for lights. My biggest problem is trying to think of what color I want to paint it. =)

Yeah it looks like it would be more at home on the Granite.

You should either lower the front or raise the rear to level out the body.

Raise the rear, makes it look 'Dakar-ish'
Looks cool the way it is though!

Um no it looks like the body is on crooked.

I finally got my bracket done and body set. Not 100% happy but it will work for now. Thank you to Acidsnow for the bracket inspiration. Paint and new tires in the spring. Hopefully one day soon I will get motor and ESC to run it.

@jonesy67 ah found deciding on a colour was the hardest part!
